The correct answer for this question would be option A. When the thermal energy in a hot iron flows into a shirt, what we can possibly say about this situation is that, the iron is warmer than the shirt. The transfer of heat from the iron to the shirt is called heat conduction. Hope this answer helps.

Answer:

a) The hot iron is warmer than the shirt.

Explanation:

Thermal energy always flows from a hot object to a cold object.

This process is similar to water flowing from a higher level to a lower level.

In the given question, since the iron is hot, it has greater thermal energy compared to the shirt. So heat flow is from the hot iron to the shirt.

( like during the ironing of a shirt).

10. Explain the principle of electric motor. Write its uses.
konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

The principle of an electric motor is based on the current carrying conductor which produces magnetic field around it. A current carrying conductor is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field so that it experiences a force.

The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives.

An automobile rounds a curve of radius 50.0 m on a flat road.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

14m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the curve  = 50m

Centripetal acceleration  = 3.92m/s²

Unknown:

Speed needed to keep the car on the curve = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is the inwardly directly acceleration needed to keep a body along a curved path.

 It is given as;

      a = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

a is the centripetal acceleration

v is the speed

r is the radius

  Now insert the parameters and find v;

         v²   = ar

        v² = 3.92 x 50  = 196

         v  = √196 = 14m/s

A 100g block lies on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 15 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio
Fed [463]

Answer:

Mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 34.16 g

Explanation:

The vertical forces (with respect to the inclined plane) acting on the 100 g block include the component of the weight of the block in the direction vertical to the inclined plane and the normal reaction of the plane on the block.

And sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces.

N = mg cos θ

m = 100 g = 0.10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

θ = 15°

N = (0.1×9.8×cos 15°) = 0.946582 N

The horizontal forces (With respect to the inclined plane) include the frictional force (acting upwards for the inclined plane, opposite to the intended direction of motion), the Tension in the rope (acting downwards, away from the 100 g block) and the horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block, F, (also acting downards).

For the body to slide down the inclined plane at constant speed, the downward sloping forces must balance the frictional force, that is, there will be no acceleration.

Frictional force = Tension + F

Frictional force = μN

where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.60

N = normal reaction = 0.9466 N

Frictional force = Fr = (0.60 × 0.9466) = 0.56796 N = 0.568 N

The horizontal component (with respect to the inclined plane) of the weight of the block (also acting downards) = mg sin θ

F = (0.10 × 9.8 × sin 15°) = 0.253624 N

Tension in the rope = T = ?

Fr = F + T

T = Fr - F = 0.568 - 0.253624 = 0.314376 N = 0.3144 N

But the balance on the rope now has the total weight on the container (weight of container + weight on the container) to be equal to 2T.

2T = mg

2 × 0.3144 = 9.8m

m = 0.06416 kg = 64.16 g.

Mass of the container = 30 g

So, mass that one should put in the container so that the 100 g block slides down the inclined plane at constant speed = 64.16 - 30 = 34.16 g

Hope this Helps!!!

which do you think would be warmer on a winter day when there is no wind a thick forest or a grassy field? explain your answer
Tju [1.3M]
I think it would be warmer in a grassy field with no wind on a winter day because you'll have sunlight hitting you. However, if you were in a thick forest, all sunlight would be blocked and you would have no warmth from the sun.
